This work was created first in black and white with photography shot in the studio, and then printed in the dark room using ultraviolet photo-emulsion technique which is literally painted and floated on to thick fabriano paper -without being able to see the results of the brushwork, so incredibly delicate and easy to ruin. The overlay is colour printed acetate The original is held by the artist, its inspired from a series of work around tantric kundalini yoga and honoring the male and the female energies (irrelevant of gender) Balance in these energies promotes growth and strength spiritually- and perhaps globally. Vibrancies, fertility, new growth are symbolized by green leaf like overlay in acetate, -growing through the plastic suffocation -, and soft pinks reds yellows frequently visited in the colour pallet generating a sense of heat and humidity. The form is intentionally pillar like, a known quality in defining the lingam in sacred Indian artworks. Sex is a way to super-consciousness through the practice of tantra, but also through celibacy to enlightenment. There are, out of interest, four pillars to the philosophy : sex, love, devotion and meditation in ancient tantric practice The title was chosen in this year (2020), as a reaction to our planet, our homeland, being destroyed by climate change and my reaction to it feeling the only place of safety/change and spirituality is within the body, and the only way to change globally is through a renaissance in meditation and tantric practices in this way. Therefore I suppose it is an offering of ancient truth delivered with a story update to a modern world.

Born on a farm in East Anglia under John Constable skies I have a relentless passion for creativity in my work and a desire to transfer the energy of optomismn and clear uplifted colour synergy through painting printmaking and Glasswork. There are of course thousands of influences but being on the road through india and south east asia, spirituality, ritual and meditation are perhaps the greatest . My practise explores memories and instances of colour euphoria in filmwork, digital photographic painting processes, and traditional fine art processes . The planet we inhabit is a vital life force I celebrate through colour synthesis, some call it kinesthesia. Its catharsis for me to attach optimism to crisis through a colour "voice" in many mediums. The palette expresses the joyous lived experience I have with vibrant pigments and the landscape and here I practice faith and devotion to spiritual growth in each now moment with making art. I attempt to capture the daily ritual of prayer and painting, journeying through life as a devotee of existence being present in the moment and using colour as the transportation vehicle. The , colours, emotions and sensations absorbed integrated and expanded through consciousness outwardly in my creative feedback loop of seeing. The intention is that there is some emotional key allowing an audience to tune in to "colour-sound" I experience through creating. A resting place where MIND becomes subservient for a time to the aesthetics rhythms and emotions of pure colour . Dream like states, the bridge between this real world and the unknown transcendental and immersive euphoric states are often themes I attempt to explore I gladly share my experiences of travelling with colour and the light and hope it gives some Joy or Serenity for a while from a chattering MIND Enjoy. LOVE AND LIGHT.
